Attention Deficit Disorder Takes A Life
You will have to excuse the rather dramatic headline, but I am in no mood for subtelty. I get sort of cranky when I open my National Post and find out that a boy who used to have no bigger problem than staying alert in school has died, thanks to his "ADD medication". This happened five years ago, so although his death is still upsetting, what really has me fuming is the fact that little seems to have been learned from this tragedy.
